. >>> and where is melania and ivanka and the family? trump's 2024 campaign is anything but a family affair. let's go "outfront." and good evening. i'm erin burnett. no recusal. the judge who was appointed by trump and is presiding over the classified documents case issuing her first order. a sign she has no plans to heed the calls to recuse herself. ordering both parties to start the process of obtaining security clearances for their lawyers by tomorrow. it comes as there are mounting questions about her record in past cases. the judge, who was piappointed 2020, has little experience in overseeing criminal trials and according to politico, the most common cases she's handled as a judge has been for what's called reentry of deported alien. routine matters that have nearly all resulted in plea deals and sentences raging up to 1.5 years. in fact, according to the "new york times" analysis of the database, of the 224 criminal cases assigned to canon, as we said, four of those only went to trial and of those four, it was only 14 trial days i

i'm just wondering, where was all this -- i mean, jared and ivanka kushner did not become drifters when they left the white house, they were pulling these scams when they were in the white house. his family -- it amazes me that a candidate like chris christie who is supposed to be the tough guy from jersey, and we already know what he does with bridges and things like that, but the reasoning is he is supposed to be a truth teller who wanted a blue state, was so quiet about these issues. this is not somebody reimagining john mccain, here this is not somebody who had a backbone of integrity to attack his party when he was in the white house, so i don't know how heating people to believe he is going to be two -- now when he didn't do it when it mattered. so the attack correct i would like to check the tape of says about hunter biden issue about jordan ivanka, you certainly have a problem with him now but you didn't, then i just don't think he has much credibility on this. >> of course, important to remember, in terms of hunter biden he is not currently employed or was ever employed by our

he made ivanka. >> you like ivanka. >> yeah. >> jimmy: all of a sudden they both got super horny at thee time. but if ye does like ivanka he apparently does not feel similarly about her husband jared and his brother josh. >> sitting with jared and sitting with josh and finding out other pieces of information, i was like, wow, these guys might have really been holding trump back. they love to just, look at me, or look at trump, like, we're so crazy and they're the business men. you know where he made these peace treaties? i just think it was to make money. i don't know. is that too heavy handed to put on this platform? >> no, that's your opinion. we're not in the censorship business. >> jimmy: yeah, no, we're in the fear and dictatorship business. all right. enough politics. very important announcement to make. if there are people asleep in your house, wake them up. they're going to be glad. they'll thank you for doing it. last december at sofi stadium here in la the world celebrated the first college football bowl game ever named after a human being, the jimmy kimmel la bowl. a major su

he was introduced by his daughter ivanka at that event. we didn't see either of those women, the closest two women to him as far as we know, in miami. we didn't see either of them at bedminster. instead he is surrounded by, you know, these acolytes, these far right maga folks. what is going on? >> it is striking. he essentially began his commandeering of the republican party where no one then took him seriously but was surrounded by the closest people to him. i don't think it was that odd he was in the courtroom alone, but being at bedminster last night without melania trump, she was in new york city, a close distance away, ivanka trump was not in miami where she lives and not at bedminster. what is going on is most of his family is simply not interested in being involved in the presidential campaign with the exception of his sons this time around. and he is surrounded by marjorie taylor greene and other figures who have risen up in this trump era. but it was a moment of solitude. he looked alone in some respects. so not to get into his he

ivanka, who is the daughter, not the ex-wife who is buried in the golf course.ughter] ivanka posted a photo on instagram that had don jr.'s fiancee, kimberly, cropped out. kimberly guilfoyle was cut out of the post. how horrible do you have to be to get cut out of a trump famil? [laughter] the dresses were very mar-a-lago. lara trump's had wings so she could fly back to her home planet. [laughter] kimberly guilfoyle is dressed as both the cracker and the barrel. [laughter] and ivanka wore heels so high, you could hang mike pence from them. [laughter] sadly, we had to wrap it up by 4:00, because trump rented the ballroom for an insurance conference. but it was fun, a lot of fun while it lasted. this, to me, sums trump's weekend up very well. first he posts, "my wonderful daughter tiffany will be getting married today at mar-a-lago. she and michael are a beautiful couple who will be very happy together. a big thank you and congratulations to tiffany's mother, marla, on the bringing up of a really great daughter!" the one time he doesn't take credit for something,

i think it should be ivanka trump and jared. >> yeah, that's a good pick. >> the kevin corke, the king and queen. everybody seems like they're picking celebrities by our poll here. you, is it celebrity or somebody dead or alive? it could be anybody in history, right? >> that's such an interesting question. i was going to go with a celebrity, too. i was going to say brad pitt and whoever he's married to now. [laughter] >> is it still angelina? >> yeah, i think she was one ago or two ago -- >> come on tom brady and giselle a year ago. >> now it is not as good. matt finn, your monarch? >> i think some people may say michelle obama or barack obama or some may say donald trump and melania. he lives in pretty much a castle. >> well, he's not currently in power. >> kelly o'grady. your thoughts on this? >> i think if we are going back to the yester years, the kennedy. i am going to go with the royal council, the kardashians. they have a lot of social media followers between them. >> if you go back 15 or 20 years, you heard a lot about j

they must be equivalent to jared and ivanka.ivanka were taking and getting $2 billion and doing corruption, there must be some equivalent on the other side because there's a lack of ability to accept your side might kind of suck, and maybe you should just get different people, but they just want to find the evil on the other side that they refuse to see on their own. >> i think that's probably right in some respect, that there's this magical thinking happening on the republican side, but i would also say that the republican party entirely in the congressional level, at the presidential level, the candidates, has formed itself around the person of donald trump and taken on much of his pathology, much of his obsessions, much of his unusual qualities. and i think that had the republican party prior to trump had some sort of policy and real idealogical core, they might have been able to resist that. what we forget is in the years prior to trump, there was this real soul searching within the republican party, what was going to come n

jared kushner and ivanka kushner walk out of the white house and months later get $2 billion from the you think it's because he's some kind of investing genius? or do you think it's because he was sitting next to the president of the united states for four years doing favors for the saudis? >> now, you know, there's no evidence that these two jared and ivanka or jared kushner specifically had access to classified material, but he could have. it's in a bathroom, in a balroom, spilling on the floor. we have no idea who had access to it, no idea why jared kushner got all that money from the saudis. i played that because the think that must keep you awake more than me is what happened to the actual documents, who saw them. i read over the weekend, this "new york times" terrifying piece, captured killed or compromised. cia admits to losing dozens of informants. the message in an unusual top secret cable said the cia's counterintelligence mission center has looked at dozens of cases in the last several years involving foreign informants who have been killed, arrested or most likely compromi

the ukrainian military in the avdiiv direction today, the night was hot, yes , hmm, the soldiers of ivanka they are used to shelling. are they sitting there smart or not? are they going to attack right now? well, it didn’t work out. they only have genetics. and igor is sitting like that, says the bitch. according to the data of the general staff, this night in the avdiyiv direction, the enemy successfully advanced in the pervomaysk area. in addition, in the avdiivka and severny areas, there were airstrikes under at least 11 settlements were hit by artillery shelling after a dozen. repeat the dozen again. this is how the ukrainian border guards work in the bakhmut direction under constant fire. the military continues to joke when asked what they are missing. silence corresponds to this area, the best work in the world. good morning, ukraine, oleks, today is the first australia, yes, it’s a cool thing , in general, it ’s breathtaking. minks as for the general staff, despite the constant enemy shelling in the bakhmut direction, in particular in the areas of the settlements of orihovo-vasylkiv

speaker missing was ivanka trump. she telling fox news she's going to sit this one out.

but eric is a fantastic and what he and don and ivanka cut and what they have gone through, and theseious people, these are serious people, but what he has done to my family and what they have done to my family is horrible. he also tried to railroad john edwards on a completely bogus legal theory that did not hold up in court. it is no wonder this raging lunatic was shipped off to the hague to prosecute war criminals using globalist tribunals, not to beholden to the constitution or the rule of law. two things jack smith clearly disdains. if you take a look at this guy, he looks like a thug but then i watched him make a speech the other day and he was trembling because it was not his territory. he feels much safer in the inner sanctum's of the department of injustice where he can beat in his room and scream at people -- beats in his room and scream at people. he is a raging trump hater as is his wife who also happened to be the producer of that michelle obama puff piece, total puff piece. this is the guy i've got. don't forget, this persecution is being done by the same weaponized agen

ukraine is waiting for a clear signal from partners regarding joining the alliance iryna ivanova ivankaails of the european bureau of the inter marathon tv channel , the only news, and right now , a meeting of the ukraine nato commission is underway in brussels. for the first time in 7 years, this meeting is held at the level of the minister of defense, and oleksiy is taking part in it. reznikov, he noted that the previous meeting in this format took place on this same day in 2016, according to the minister, the parties managed to overcome some barriers and revive the format. this dialogue gives impetus to the political, military and bureaucratic mechanisms that exist in the ukraine -nato partnership, oleksiy reznikov emphasized president volodymyr zelenskyy called on the swiss parliament to allow the re-export of weapons in order to restore peace in ukraine. in his speech, the head of state emphasized the consequences of russia's full-scale aggression against ukraine from the suffering of hundreds of ukrainian families to the danger due to the occupation of the zaporizhzhia nuclear pow

good day , ivanka, i want to have dinner with you. recommend that you have a delicious meal. we have very popular dishes , god, we have very tasty mushroom soup deruna with mushrooms and cheese, i'll tell you, the prices are average in our country, a bograchka costs uah 189, a nice plate of 300 g is served with croutons with adjika with greens, a stupid one with mushrooms and cheese costs uah 159 per portion , in general, a hearty lunch will cost one in on average 300-400 hryvnias, a break in the carpathians is diverse, it is very popular, extreme today in yaremche, tomorrow, rafting , every day. we are very active in this regard , rope-jumping, even queues, prices start from two to five hundred, one of the most popular activities among tourists hiked the mountains on foot or on atvs rental points literally at every step there are different routes i one hour route this mountain rusynivka it is 862 m above sea level there is a very beautiful landscape there are two hours routes this mountain rocket there flower kolomyia black white glories comparison with last year prices have

jared kushner and ivanka kushner walk out of the white house and months later get 2 billion $ from then from the saudis. do you think it's because he's some kind of investing genius? or do you think because he was sitting next to the president of the united states for four years doing favors for the saudis? that's your money. that's your money he stole. and gave it to his family. you know what that makes us? a banana republic. that's what it makes us. so, he may get 30% again. i'm not sure. maybe he'll get more. maybe he'll get less. but let me tell you what he'll know in 2024 that he had no idea in 2016, he's in a fight to get it. >> that was new and for the record, literally nobody thinks that jared kushner is an investing genius. that's former new jersey republican governor chris christie. and that was his opening message. he's officially thrown his hat in the ring to run for president, in a republican primary, in 2024. he came out of the gate swinging at donald trump, at jared kushner, at jared kushner's wife, ivanka kushner, in a launch of an event in new hampshire, christie took

video of former president donald trump, but pages of videos depicting his wife melania and daughter ivanka. >> important point. these models are trained on women's bodies. even if you feed a male image into the face swap tools that exist, it's not going to work as well. they have been created by men for the purpose of demeaning women or pleasuring themselves and it does not work as well and that's why we see the 96% figure. >> ai has made these videos more convincing, but even poorly once the motive? f >> the motive is to demean and discredit. videos of me were posted on a website for deep fake corn. even so, the idea is to humiliate me, show me an instance which is extremely private. this is the point. the cheap fix are meant to cast doubts. not fit for public office or public life. >> we spent time on these forums where you can see people interact. the men are concerned about their own privacy, they don't want to be found out for making these videos but they are not concerned. they said if you are a public figure, if your image is out there you have the right to make this art, i don't be

>> i want to say i'm proud of our time in the white house, i have great respect for jared and ivanka, i wouldn't use terms like that to describe them, they made extraordinary contributions. i think personal attacks have no place in public life. i said yesterday democracy depends on heavy doses of civility. i will draw a clear line where i differ with others in the field and where i differ with joe biden, i think the american people want to see us restore civility to public life, something we've aspired to as a family throat our career and we will carry ourselves forward. >> brian: you don't think trump should be indicted on this document case, i saw you said yesterday? >> look, no one is above the law, i hope not. i mean, we're all still reeling from the execution of a search warrant a year ago at the home of a former president. i was on the judiciary committee, i said, there had to be dozens of ways that could have been resolved without a search warrant at the president's residence. i want to say, i hope the doj thinks careful about the prospect of it is indictment of former presiden

. >> i was struck yesterday, he really went after trump's family, after ivanka trump and jared kushner calling them grifters. there's a backstory there with kushner in particular. he's going somewhere that other candidates have been afraid to do so. it will be a balance. his stated mission is to become the gop nominee, he's a long shot. he's not playing in iowa, only playing in new hampshire, he's polling in the single digits. some in the gop, never trumpers who want christie put on the political suicide vest, if it's not me make sure it's not trump either. >> the other thing, you're right, he's very good at earned media. he'll do a ton of interviews. the best time to take on donald trump is on debate stage. very strict guidelines that the rnc put in place to make it. >>> still ahead, another revolt against house speaker kevin mccarthy from within his own party. as right-wing members block a pair of gop bills in response to the debt ceiling deal. >>> also ahead, could florida governor ron desantis face criminal charges in california. we'll explain that, plus more on yesterday's stunnin

ivanka had massive tax violations and deferred gun charge? i don't think so. of course a very angry joe biden didn't feel the need to explain himself. >> how involved were you in your son's's text message? were you involved? >> no! [laughter] >> little angry there joe. anyway, he thinks he's untouchable. he can't believe a reporter is even asking about this serious real scandal a day after hunter's sweetheart deal with the doj biden proudly flaunted his son at white house state dinner where attorney general immediately merrick garland was in attendance and according to my sources the president's crooked son has been living at the white house at various times but appears on no visitor logs. the biden's in your face conducts is so appalling even democrats are growing uneasy. jean pierre canceled an appearance on the view saying she was stantdzing in solidarity with striking writers. that's why the show is so bad. they script it. which is totally unbelievable according to the "new york times" quote some of the president's allies privately complain he has a blind

. >> i can't believe for one second that eric trump, don, jr., ivanka, anyone else who was the son ordaughter of the former president, they had this type of evidence pile against them, that we would see anything like the way that the legacy media has really until this past week tried to sweep this story under the rug, pretend that it doesn't exist. instead what we have here, i think, is a fact set that clearly deserves to be investigated, deserves to be looked into, and you have the additional aspect of, frankly, merrick garland's promise before the united states congress that he would not in any way interfere that mr. weiss would have total authority when it came to what was done with this case, and i think that we now know or we have a preponderance of evidence that was not the case, whether they were directed on high or acting in partisan interest, this is a case they wanted to go away, didn't want questions asked about any connection to hunter biden's father and certainly any decisions that he might have made that could have been influenced by this money. >> bret: ben, as always,

including him talking to -- some woman, it could be melania, or maybe it could be ivanka, we were debatingier. he's told, you know what, there's not enough room on the plane. for all these boxes to go to bedminster. he's like, oh, no he's going to go through them. he's not gonna want the whole box. he's the one communicating and physically moving the boxes. he's caught on tape. and then he is the one interviewed by the fbi, and lies. this guy -- i mean, it's hard not to feel a bit of pity for him. he's the little guy, trump obviously is paying his legal bills. but he faces the exact same consequences as someone who is so rich, and had so much power. >> two men are going to be in a courthouse standing next to each other, like the home alone burglars. on tuesday morning. >> that's an additional legal problem for donald trump. because if he were a stand-alone defendant, i actually think he would be in a better position when and if sentencing comes around. because this guy, people have gone to prison for what this guy has done. >> oh yeah. >> the idea that well, there is no principle that says

testified to the grand jury, or been subpoenaed, ranging from people and trump's inner circle, including ivanka trump, jared kushner, two former campaign aides and states like arizona, and michigan. certainly, this is a partial list that they were able to chase down, and we know it's even more. it shows testimonies of documents and search jeffrey clark's home, they seized the phones of droplet or mike pillow, and it wasn't a hearty starter in minnesota when federal agents caught up to him. this investigation has been running parallel to the documents probe. undoubtedly, and massing an enormous amount of evidence on where that will go. they've been closely following the investigation into january 6th, and joins me now. it is a window into how we know who has been there, right? it is just people being around the federal courthouse, and seeing people, right? >> we have some of our ace producers, who camp out, and there's a long list of people you need to look for. there were complicated and, there was some sort of book to see on who is who. but in this case, basically, there's a lot of elevator wa

he laid into donald trump last night, going after him on immigration, ivanka and jared kushner. >> theerson i am talking about, who is obsessed with the mirror, who never admits a mistake, who never admits a fault, and who always finds someone else and something else to blame for whatever goes wrong, but finds every reason to take credit for anything that goes right, is donald trump. i am going out there to take out donald trump. here is why. i want to win. i don't want him to win. >> david, nobody has been as blunt as chris christie. not surprisingly, going after his former boss. well, the former president. but 47% of republicans view vory unfavorably. how does he beat trump? >> he likely doesn't. if you are not donald trump or ron desantis, you are focused on a very early state strategy. you don't have the name or financial resources to get out of iowa and new hampshire, south carolina without a win. that's true of chris christie. he cannot win on this message of beating up trump. what i'm looking for is chris christie to have a clarifying role in this now large group of republicans

update on the investigation into the january 6th insurrections, special counsel issued a subpoena for ivanka trump and her husband jared kushner which i don't know the point of subpoenaing ivan ca. you know she's just going to plead the saks fifth. right? is donald trump your philadelphia snr i do not recall. serving jared raises important and legal questions like can you subpoena a mannequin? meanwhile danny donald has been trying to exploit the poison us situation in east palestine ohio for political gain. he went there yesterday to drop off crates of trump water. not a joke. trump ice. crates of them, and also lash out at president biden. his response to the toxic train remembering. trump told loss that the biden administration showed indifference and betrayal, but turns out, you're not going to believe this, there's more to the story t trump claimed he was there to help so when secretary of transportation pete buttigieg showed up today he was asked how he might be able to help. >> so one thing you can do is express support for reversing the deregulation that happened on his watch. i hear

this is not jared or ivanka. >> is there anything from the former president seeking a plea deal. >> if doj and said we're interested in talking, if i was at doj, i would say, yes, let's please talk. if there's any reasonable outcome you can reach a plea deal. non-incarceratory, i'm sure they're not saying, we're going to trial all guns ablaze. you will have a jury pool and it will be difficult and potentially a polarizing trial. >> your name came up with the former president of fox on monday. i just want to play that. >> something happens. when people leave, they can like me very much. i had this woman named alyssa farrah. she said the greatest things. he's the greatest president, he's unbelievable. then "the view" offered a contract only if she changed her views and she can say negative things. money gets offered to people and some people change. >> his breathing seems weird to me, but i want to let you respond. >> just as a simple fact pattern, i was on fox news on january 7th, 2021, where i denounced him. i've done that every week since. didn't join "the view" until two weeks left.

jared and ivanka took $2 billion from the saudis, we don't know for what.t it's hunt ter. there is this magical around russia. what is this magical thinking about? 30 seconds. >> there are no normy republicans fortunately. >> fair. >> the ones you thought were aren't. it's all magas. it's because it's the party tribal mentality. this is what every week they have decided the messaging was going to be because they don't have an agenda, they don't have a policy agenda to run on that is consistent and they have to deal with donald trump. so this is what they're trying to do thinking the american people are stupid, but they're not. we call them out every day and we need to keep doing that. i hope democrats do and not sit back and just think people are going to figure it out. they need to message, message, message and be consistent and come back. >> coming from a coms director, tara setmayer. much appreciated. >> indeed. >>> frantic search for the passengers and crew on the missing submersible. this is a bombas performance sock. for such a small item it performs

ivanka got trademarks by the chinese government and the japanese government.r was in the white house doing business with both those nations. doing trade deals. look, many, how critical must be to be republican. you're not concerned by facts. you just make things up. eugene playbook. he fabricates of thing. you repeat it off enough. they stay on message. repeat it often enough. and then fox news is the fabrication amplifier. it gets out there. and then those people call my radio show. they tell me things as a fact. why am i not covering joe biden's bribery. where is the audio? where is the informant. it doesn't matter. okay, facts no matter. just like the 2020 election was stolen. it doesn't matter. it's whatever they want to leave. they believe that. what a remarkable way to live life. >> another reason why for -- refused to refer it as fox news. it's just lightly not. philip, at the center of the burisma conspiracy theory, is then vice president biden publicly threatened ukraine that it would get a billion dollars of loan guarantees until they removed the the

plus the law is very vague, and when the law is very ivanka, specially dealing with such a topic as dragcement and discrimination that way. the court did a really good job at setting a good example for other courts. because we are going to see this, rev. we're going to see these lawsuits, we're already seeing cases coming out of other states where they're going to have more lawsuits, and more lawsuits. i'm hoping that people will look at this and set this precedent. i think it's absolutely the right way to go. >> david, this week former vice president mike pence and former new jersey governor chris christie are expected to officially announce their presidential bids. both candidates are well-known national names. but at the moment, they don't have much proper support. could either of them gain enough support in a republican primary, and how would you see them doing it? >> the odds aren't in their favor. but every candidate other than trump is counting on trump to tumble somehow. trump will wound himself, either through a conviction or through additional indictments, or a possible convict

. >> so i talk to him, hey, hey pal, you had dinner with melania and ivanka, we've got your back. president trump, we have your back. this is not about you. it's about us. you can take to the you takely llama and this is a bunch of bs president trump you're going to prevail and be the republican nominee and you're going to be president again. just hang in there. [cheers and applause]. >> sean: what do you make -- how is its possible the things you're explaining? you don't believe that george stephanopoulos knew, i give him more credit than that, i think he knew dam well about the 33,000 deleted e-mails. he's heard about bleach bit. he's heard about hammers destroying black berries and iphones they know all about it and yet they protect their own and are willing to have a complete double standard because the media's an extension of all things radical, new green deal democratic socialist party are they not? >> yeah, okay, john mccain was great until he became the nominee then he was a crazy old man. mitt romney was a heartless billionaire who put the dog on top of the car. here's wh

did she see any other former family members ivanka or any others as thearraignment took place ?e any waiting to get in? >> i did not see any family members. none of those spaces we are also familiar with. most of the people i was seeing were us marshals, people who were, a lot of journalists. there were at least 100 of us twaiting in this pooling room all day there were a handful of members of the public who were there as well and i did talk to a few of these members. some slept overnight but what i was surprised was is that just one of them the folks that i talk to that were there they weren't these sort of flag-waving extremely pro-trump sort of, a couple of them were just swept up my history of what was happening said he wanted to witness it and wanted to see the history taking place. it's never happened before and witness it for themselves us. >> they just wanted to see howit all unfolded . >> one man i talked to and i will do my notes to get more detail on him, he is a federal litigation attorney lives in california ?he was out here in florida traveling for for his daughter

to rsvp, you have to check yes or ivanka. [ laughter ] not gonna -- not gonna show up, no biden's alreadyit's the first time an 80-year-old has ever said, "get on my lawn [ light laughter ] the south lawn." it's different getting married when your grandfather's president, though. you get cards that say, "enjoy the panini maker, love kim jong-un. [ laughter ] yep, the biden family has a lot to celebrate this weekend, 'cause on sunday, the president turns 80 [ applause ] just to give you the sense of how old that is, consider this he's 80. [ laughter ] democrats don't want to take any chances, so there are going to be no surprise parties. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause don't clap too loud. he might be watching [ laughter ] hey, this is big - today the justice department named a special counsel to investigate whether former president trump should be charged for january 6th or taking classified documents. as we speak, trump is squeezing into a turkey costume to trick biden into pardoning him [ laughter ] "gobble, gobble. [ laughter and applause gobble, gobble." [ laughter ] switching gear

asked for any severance and non-disclosure agreements and a number of people including hope hicks and ivankant e-mails between trump's longtime assistant and melania trump and they want to establish that for meetings and travel that he was involved with during a two-year period. >> a heck of a lot of information they're going after in this case. donald trump has asked for the judge to recuse himself in the case. what is the manhattan district attorney's office saying about that? >> right. trump wants that judge recused because his daughter had briefly worked for a political organization that did work with democrats including the vice president kamala harris. he also, the judge, had made $35 in donations including some of that money going to biden. so these are the issues that trump has raised. the d.a. is saying that a recusal is not necessary. this is part of trump's history of making baseless allegations of bias of judges overseeing his case and in the court filing they say recusal would facilitate recusal by the defendant and allow other litigants to adopt the same approach. donald trump

i don't know. [ laughter ] i never noticed what a voice -- why is ivanka's voice more masculine thanric's? [ laughter ] high pitch eric. if you want to know where the prosecutors are, the answer is gathering evidence against your grifter father. that's where they are. [ cheers and applause ] trump isn't the only prominent member of the magaverse having legal troubles. a manhattan judge and jury today rejected sarah palin's lawsuit against "the new york times." they said there wasn't enough evidence to prove "the times" defamed her in an editorial they published in 2017. so i guess she traveled all that way on her dogsled for nothing. [ laughter ] i have to say, between elections and lawsuits and "the masked singer," sarah palin is one of the most versatile losers in history. [ laughter ] she's got range. meanwhile, palin 3.0, congresswoman marjorie taylor greene, last week you may have heard, she confused the word gestapo with gazpacho. [ laughter ] and we all made fun of her. so last night, klan mom zoomed in with oan where host dan ball bent over so far he could taste his own last

i do wonder does it surprise you to not really see any members of the trump family, ivanka trump, melania, there with him for all of this that has transpired over the last 24 hours. >> well, you know, it's true love. there's nothing else i can say about that. nothing like having your family behind you when the chips are down. >> all right, michael cohen, thank you very much for joining us. >> good to see you, abby. >>> and coming up arnold shwarzenegger joins cnn speaking out for the first time about trump's indictment. her his predictions for the former president. plus chris wallace joins me ow how trump's rivals are going their separate ways over this as talk of a potential pardon heats up in the 2024 race. - this is our premium platinum coverage map and this is consumer cellular's map. see the difference? - no... i don't see the difference, do you? - well, that one's purple. - exactly! that's our premium. - what does that mea - i think it means it cts more. - for the same coverag - that's what makes it premium! - that doesn't make sense, does it? - no... but it is premium! - i'd just g

ivanka trump tiffany trump. former first lady melania trump.have not received confirmation of who that person is. but that is somebody who was in and out of trump's bedroom and residents. during this time periods. over the course of several days and in between trump's legal team received the may 11th subpoena and evan corcoran layer to his own search on behalf of trump. to be responsive to that subpoena he carried around 65 boxes back and forth between the residents. and trump's storage room. so, it would've been hard to miss. but again, still unsure who this woman's. >> as a former prosecutor tim, do you think the doj has had a line? is he feeling pressure to flip? >> absolutely. the department brought criminal charges because his criminal exposure. he faces present time. and that creates a very powerful incentive for him to minimize exposure. and potentially providing information to prosecutors incriminating information about the former presidents specific intent to possess these documents which could be really important. but he met with pros

well, ivanka trump >> has been dismissed from a fraud lawsuit brought by new york's that this was a ruling by new york's appeals court. the lawsuit was brought by state attorneys general james last year against former president donald trump. his 3 children and his company. the lawsuit accused the former president of inflating the value of his properties to banks and insurance companies to get favorable rates. the lawsuit also alleges that trump's children were part of that conspiracy to commit these crimes. it's seeking 250 million dollars in financial penalties and asks the court to block trump and his children from working as a director or officer in any corporation registered in new york state. well, the supreme court is saving its most controversial cases for last with decisions on a number of issues expected tomorrow. perhaps the biggest decision is regarding president joe biden's student debt relief program. more than 40 million americans are waiting to see if their debts will be slashed. that's if the court rules against blocking it. another big case could up in 40 years of race, co

he went after ivanka and jared. that's kind of like a trump move to go after the family even though in this case, it is obviously wholly justified. it would be great to see him on stage with trump, we don't know if we will ever see it. >> michelle goldberg in new hampshire tonight, thank you very much. that is all in on this tuesday night, alex wagner tonight starts right now. good evening alex. starts rig>> you have to think,t 40,000 unique donors that christie has? >> i think that is an absolute possibility. >> right? somehow, by hook or by crook. >> good talker. >> thanks, chris. thank you to you at home for joining us this hour. we start tonight with significant breaking news, the new york times is confirming that mark meadows, donald trump's former chief of staff has testified to a federal grand jury as part of special counsel's jack smith ongoing investigations into trump's mishandling of classified information and his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. this is a major development, and we are going to talk

jared kushner and ivanka kushner walked out of the white house and months later get two billion dollars from the saudis? two billion dollars from the saudis. you think it's because he's some kind of investing genius? or do you think it's because he was sitting next to the president of the united states for four years doing favors for the saudis? that is your money. that is your money he stole. and gave it to his family. you know what that makes us? a banana republic. that's what it makes us. >> so, inches the last 24 hours, three new candidates have joined, officially, the republican primary. last night, it was former new jersey governor, chris christie. today, it was former vice president, mike pence, as well as north dakota governor, doug burgum. in all, there were now ten candidates running for the nomination. that tracks the 2016 race, when exactly ten candidates had announced, by this point, including donald trump, who did not announce until mid june. of course, that field eventually blew up to 17 candidates by the fall. george pataki, i actually forgot that until i look at that gr

a judge today ruled that donald trump, ivanka trump, and don jr.l have to sit for depositions as part of the attorney general's investigation into their family business and whether or not they committed fraud. i bet trump gets five seconds into that deposition before he shouts "it was eric!" [ laughter ] the judge says the trumps have 21 days to comply. right now, they're looking for a bible tiny enough for him to put his hand on. to swear him in. [ laughter ] eric trump was not deposed for this round of questioning. and maybe it's for the best because no judge or even lawyer should ever be subjected to this. >> where are these prosecutors? it actually hurts our country. push him on it. the actual taxes? where were you? i don't understand. how about -- what -- what the hell -- look at the -- literally -- vaccines, people are -- why is -- where is this -- literally -- offenses -- when do they -- how many -- let me finish. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: yeah. yeah. that's a -- he's a chipmunk off the old block is what he is. [ laughte

he went after ivanka and jared.ly justified. it would be great to see him on stage with trump, we don't know if we will ever see it. >> michelle goldberg in new hampshire tonight, thank you very much. that is all in on this tuesday night, alex wagner tonight starts right now. good evening alex. starts rig>> you have to think,t 40,000 unique donors that christie has? >> i think that is

applause speaking of trump, according to a new book, at one point during his presidency, he nearly fired ivankaed over twitter. [ laughter ] meanwhile, eric and don jr. were like, "wait a minute, he follows you guys on twitter? [ laughter ] well, listen to this, apparently democratic insiders are impressed with gavin newsom's recent criticism of republicans, and some think he's gearing up to run for president. [ audience cheers [ laughter ] >> steve: oh, yeah >> jimmy: that was great it was like -- everyone was on this side of the crowd and then -- it's very odd. i think it's just very interesting. because if you put newsom in one of those aging apps, you pretty much get joe biden. [ laughter ] and i just thought it's very similar. little tweak up. [ cheers and applause hey guys, i heard that kia recalled 70,000 sorento and sportage suvs after multiple reports of fires and localized melting incidents. [ light laughter ] kia was like, "look, on the bright side, you now have the world's biggest panini maker so, that's pretty good." [ light laughter ] apparently, the tow hitch in the back could me

opening and closing the door and talking to trump, including, and he was the one who got i think ivanka to come down and talk to her father. he was basically grand central station that day. and if there's anyone who could shed light on trump's state of mind, what he did, what he didn't do, it's mark meadows. that's a very -- that's got to be a very disturbing thing for donald trump. >> yesterday, we learned of this other grand jury. there's a florida grand jury now, there's a washington grand jury. the washington grand jury is going to reup on wednesday and hear witnesses. do you have any sense as, you know, given your background as a prosecutor, given all of the things you have heard, of whether or not you can tell whether the jack smith process has a more ripe sort of conclusion in the documents case or in the january 6th case? because the meadows testimony suggests to me that that part of it actually isn't dead, and i think a lot of people had been focusing just on documents. >> i'm going to disclaim being a prosecutor. i did some white collar defense in my time. but i think it's pre
